“As an entrepreneur, you just can't put all your eggs in one platform. You really have to have three or four different platforms, and I don't think we were quick enough to recognize Pinterest, Reddit, YouTube, and other platforms we could have monetized through…”

“One of the things that I did recently, I took the scripts of all of the top videos that I ever made from my YouTube channel, and I just fed it in, and the prompt to Gemini, because it had long context at the time, I think a lot of other people have long contex…”

“It generally, so LMs, the classes of domain types of domains that are cited frequently, video and UGC are huge. Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, I am not seeing X that much. And then video and YouTube shows up a lot.”

“If I'm making viral YouTube videos and you know, a TikTok video and an Instagram story and a Reddit thread, I can be the best product tomorrow. So the time to impact is fast and I can grow on these other channels without really having a substantial brand.”

“So actually to do answer engine optimization really well, I think it's not doing pure answer engine optimization. It's doing all of these other channels, but doing YouTube and Reddit with the intention of helping you on answer engine optimization.”

“We're a pretty big channel in our space, and we probably do 1.5 to two million views per month.”

“We don't send people to the YouTube anymore. We send people to here, which I like more, because I'd rather have them on my site, you know, that could potentially be useful for retargeting.”

“I basically rebuilt a small version of YouTube in an hour, a couple hours, the early versions of it.”

“I think maybe in like a year it'll be able to do that. But right now you still got to kind of approach it like a programmer”

“Now how I think about it is that this is the hub, and YouTube is a spoke. Yeah, that would be a really bad spoke to lose, but it will not kill the business.”
